#2 DDT/TJPW - Maki Itoh vs Sami Zayn would light up any arena
Trending
Maki Itoh is your new favorite wrestler. There is no choice in this, it’s just straight up facts. She’s cute, foul-mouthed, deadly and could be a formidable opponent for Sami Zayn.
She currently works for DDT and Tokyo Joshi Pro-wrestling, but has also appeared for AEW. Sometimes you just want something fun and hard hitting and this match will give this to us.
DDT is the perfect place for this bout to take place, as intergender matches are the norm. Maki Itoh is a joy and brings it no matter where the match takes place. She recently took part in an electric barbed wire death match and bringing Sami Zayn into that environment would be very interesting. Let’s just put the internet’s two favorite wrestlers in a ring and see what they can do.
1. AEW | Penta El Zero M should mix it up with Sami Zayn
While Rey Fenix and PAC came in at a close second and third what we really need to see is Sami Zayn face off against the man with Zero Fear, Penta El Zero M. This match could be a true throwback to his feuds with Kevin Owens and will bring out the best in Sami Zayn.
Sami Zayn always works best as a true underdog and a match with someone as physically imposing as Penta El Zero M would feed into that. Death Triangle can get fully involved with these matches too. Zayn and Rey Fenix would be a thrilling contest in and of its own, and the long-awaited rematch between Sami and the former Neville, PAC promises to be an instant classic.
All these things should lead to an eventual match against Penta, put them in a steel cage, and watch the fun commence. Sami Zayn is still one of the best in-ring performers in wrestling today and having him face off against someone with the power and ruthlessness of Penta will really show the world what he is capable of.
Bonus: El Generico
When will El Generico return from his orphanage in Tijuana? When will he face off against Sami Zayn? We all know that they are very similar in the ring, but they aren’t the same person, they are just good friends. Sami Zayn has even released a t-shirt for this dream match, so it needs to happen right?
We know at Sportskeeda that this one won't happen, but wouldn't it be fun?
